"Everybody has the right to feed oneself in dignity."

Isabella Lövin

Member of European Parliament

Philippe Lamberts

European Greens

"Food (incl. water) is a basic human right of which a billion of our fellow citizens on planet Earth are deprived. Let us not accept that; enforcing the right to food and water are at the heart of the fight for justice, solidarity and sustainability."

Jürgen Schröder

Group of the European People's Party (Christian Democrats) and European Democrats

"We need citizens to challenge their candidates in election: No engagement against hunger - No vote!"

Olle Schmidt

Alliance of Liberals and Democrats for Europe

"I would like to strengthen the power and entrepreneurship of women in development countries to give them the possibility to feed themselves and their families".

Jens Holm

Confederal Group of the European United Left - Nordic Green Left

"It's strange that there seems to be unlimited means when it comes to protect the bancs in crises, whereas at the same time, one says there is no money to make all children get enough to eat. That's unacceptable. Enough resources are there, now we have to foster political will. I'm prepared to do anything I can."

Jean-Luc Benhamias

Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance

Jean-Luc Benhamias, MEP, wants to support your action "so that the Right to Food becomes at last the core of national and european policies".

Carl Schlyter

Group of the Greens/European Free Alliance

"Food should be a source of life, joy and pleasure. But lack thereof is killing millions, surplus of it is creating illness among millions of others. Humankind does not have a shortage of food, we have a shortage of solidarity, it is fair distribution we are lacking, not food."

Kader Arif

"Besides the emergency action to be taken to respond to the world food crisis, it is necessary to develop a long term action to find a solution to the root causes of this crisis. Export crops have been privileged too long to the disadvantage of food crops. This logic has to be reversed to support self-sufficiency."

Eva-Britt Svensson

Confederal Group of the European United Left - Nordic Green Left

"All children - regardless of where they were born - have an immediate right to food, housing and health care. And it is our responsibility to ensure all children's equal dignity."
